Description:

gnome-music player crashes within seconds of opening when I have folders mounted within ~/Music directory. The app starts to populate album images and then closes without notice. (The app works if files are put directly in Music and the linked folder is deleted.)

Additional info:
gnome-music 3.20.2-1


Steps to reproduce:
Mounted a Windows 10 NTFS partition to /mnt/windows and then performed ln -s /mnt/windows/Users/username/Music ~/Music/Windows
Opened Gnome Music from Gnome-Shell
(I could not find any log files that could help explain what happened.)
This task depends upon

Resolved with upstream developer. I simply ran gnome music from the terminal with the debug option and it worked. Afterwards, I could use the shortcut for Music within Gnome-shell without running into any errors.

gnome-music -d
